varying from Association to Association and from State to State. Some principle
ways are: Accountability - through security checks, fingerprinting, background
investigations, licensing, etc. Training - through ongoing hands-on classesat the local,
state and national levels, including Manufacturer and Distributor sponsored
classes and seminars. Education - through Association newsletters and
National-level journals, manuals and books.

more than having to replace a cheap lockset that has worn out prematurely. We

security needs. Purchasing the very best hardware you can afford, will keep
your security needs cost effective.

A: In most cases keys can be made by a locksmith
from the code number of a lock. This is common with vehicles, padlocks, filing
cabinets, etc. Requiring proof of ownership before cutting a key by code is a
standard procedure used by Security Professionals to safeguard security.

A Master Key is a key that is designed to operate all the locks in a specific
group of locks. It is a myth that there exists a particular Master Key that will
open all locks. In order to master key a group of locks the locks must all be
made by the same manufacturer or at least have interchangeable Keyways. In a
group of locks that are Master-keyed (MK) each lock is operable by both it's own
individual key and the master key. Each individual key operates it's own lock
only. The master key operates all the locks in the group. Other systems are also
possible using sub-Masters, Grand-Masters, etc.
